pre-built Linux package available for Download?
For those Fit-PC 2's that don't have an OS installed, is there a pre-built Linux that we can download somewhere, with all the appropriate optimizations and drivers and whatnot pre-installed? Or do we have to download Ubuntu ourselves and install it from scratch? If there is such a pre-built download...

Re: DVI-I or VGA video output.
Yeah, I've already got a couple of Fit-PC Slims. They're just not quite quick enough for our purposes, unfortunately. The Fit-PC2 should be plenty quick, but it's really gonna be a stretch to spend $125 per unit to either buy a new monitor or buy an HDMI-to-VGA adapter.

DVI-I or VGA video output.
The fact that this thing cannot connect to any of the 50 analog-VGA monitors I've got is a deal-breaker for me. This thing needs to have an analog video option, period. Can you bring out a DVI-I signal on the HDMI connector, instead of just a DVI-D signal? Something that'd work with a cheap ($10) HD...

Re: Still confused about the video...
So there's no way to get it to support DVI-I? Would that require different software, perhaps? Or is it a hardware issue? And how much would it cost to make those changes so it does support DVI-I? Seems to me that paying an extra couple of bucks for DVI-I hardware would make it *far* easier on the en...

Where to buy in the USA?
People are receiving these Fit-PC2's already, but I'll be darned if I can find anyplace in the USA that sells 'em yet.
Has anyone successfully received one in the USA yet? Where'd you buy it?

Still confused about the video...
Ok, it seems to me that since this thing does DVI on the HDMI connector, it'd be a simple matter of buying an HDMI-to-DVI converter, and attaching a DVI-to-VGA converter to that. Total cost, $20 or less. I don't really get why everyone is saying we need a super-expensive $125 converter box -- unless...
